GEN 2 King shocks and Kibbetech uppers.

[wes127]

Been a few months now but I put on the OE King kit with Kibbetech uppers and deaver leafs. Running 35s but wanting to go to 37s once this is figured out. On a 18 Gen 2

Now I’m getting loud popping sound coming from my front when turning and in reverse. Also I’m getting popping noises from the rear also and it isn’t the triple bypass sound. Anyone know what this could be?

I’ve asked a few friends and they said bearing could be going out, I asked my local Ford dealer and they said “those don’t go out in the front end” that could be the typical arrogant service tech but idk. Any into would be rad.

Also about time for a brake job. What’s everyone running??

Noticing the grease, you don’t have a bad lower ball joint do you?

Otherwise assuming all bolts are torqued properly I would think CV joint, but that would basically require you to either have a IWE eliminator or a vacuum leak or be in 4wd.

Pops are usually CV axles or ring/ pinion gears (coming from the solid axle world) .

I agree with both Jakenbake and thatJeepguy. I’m thinking it’s a worn lower ball joint tho.

A lot of people are switching to Alcon 6 piston calipers. I am still waiting on the brackets to install mine.
